Franchises For Sale – Business Franchise Opportunity

Merchants Barter Exchange Growing Fast as the Leading Trade Exchange in U.S.

The VR Franchise Showcase, a leader in franchise and business placement for aspiring and established owners, has partnered with Merchants Barter Exchange in growing their network across North America.

Today, barter is back in a big way, fueled by trade exchanges that facilitate transactions among member countries and companies. There are now thousands of member companies, large, medium and small, presenting potential licensees with a growth opportunity seldom encountered in these challenging times.

On average, 800 barter transactions take place every minute in North America.

The average dollar amount of a barter transaction is $12,645.

Over 60% of Fortune 500 companies barter on a daily basis to enhance cash flow, preserve their asset base and get full retail value for their unsold inventories.

The current barter boom began in 2001 and has grown over 120% per annum since.

Merchants Barter Exchange offers competitive prices to members nationwide. All transactions are paid for 100% in trade.

There are three primary benefits that Merchants Barter Exchange offers their member companies:

New business generation. Member companies are exposed to thousands of new business contacts across the U.S. eager to spend their Trade Dollars.

Cash conservation. Member companies purchase the goods and services they need with Trade Dollars instead of cash – reducing the cost of borrowing.

Excess time, inventory and capacity capitalization. Members are able to obtain a higher value for these assets than they would if they sold them for cash at a few cents on the dollar.

As a licensed owner, your focus first will be to hire and manage a sales force of 10 reps. Merchants Barter Exchange will handle all training for you. Once new accounts are approved in their system, they will handle all mailing, billing, brokering and marketing.
